Holydays time has come and the summer is a station to be with family and friends, to rest and to travel! Many of us will travel to the village, beach or a tourist destination beyond the borders.

Reading is a great way to travel, don't you think that? Through books we can discover places, customs and people just turning pages. Think about what you would like to know (America, Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania, or everything) and, through the 80 stories of this book, immerse yourself in the culture of each continent.

Also, the popular narrative that has been inherited from generation to generation over the centuries trasmits teachings, values and morals that help us to learn more about others and ourselves. Do you want to know why the quetzal is the Guatemalan national symbol, how the Chinese horoscope was born, where is the true path to paradise or who were the last bogatyrs?

I wish you all a happy holiday and I hope that, wherever you go, don't forget to put a book in your backpack. "And finished the story with bread and pepper, and roasted radish for the one who has heard it" (traditional Spanish tale).
